Step 1. Buy server space.
Step 2. Record a mix.
Step 3. Title it "_____ Podcast 001"
Step 4. Upload to server.

Repeat while increasing the number in step 3 by one each time.

Congratulations, you have a podcast.

Technically, you can't share your mix even if you're not selling it. Unless it's a DJ demo/promotion. Even then, your mileage will vary - depends on the country.

Yes, yes - but we both know that's effectively a non-issue. There are plenty of "podcasts" and promo sets out there that release regularly without label clearance, so isn't it a moot point?

Good luck getting it onto iTunes, I hope you have a bit of loot.

Until you get thousands of listeners and the labels come knocking for money, you'll be fine.

A podcast is more or less just an idiotic name for a recorded set. It existed before some jerk started calling it PODcast. And now all the kids on internet thinks its some cool new phenomen.
